The car that was hit was parked on the shoulder at the time of the accident. The driver had pulled over to do something with the Bluetooth in the car.

That particular Lancair did not have a BRS.

He was reportedly looking like he was going to land on the Palomar RC field until seeing the field was occupied by numerous people and rider mowers doing a field day event.

Weirdly enough, the same plane, with a different owner and pilot at the time, made an emergency landing on I-15 back in 2000.

Somebody died in this, so way to go turing a tragedy for that person's family into fodder for an epically stupid thread on RCU, and that is saying something considering the inane exchanges that occur in this forum.
